I'm quoting this now because it might be the last time all year I'm right.
Cardinals starters
WAR: 2.6
FIP 3.23
ERA 3.38
WPA .87
Cub's starters
WAR 1.1
FIP 3.97
ERA 4.21
WPA .06
I'm also ignoring the second part of my post stating that Mike Leake has no upside. He has a 1.0 WAR. There's 5 pitchers who have matched or bested the Cubs WAR by themselves.
I wonder how long this will actually last.
